These Galaxy Devices Should Get Android 15 (One UI 7.0) Update
Google already took a step forward for its next major software update, Android 15, by releasing the first developer preview of the next version of the operating system.
Google has already started its job of providing the upgraded software version to smartphones. It is expected that, most likely, by July, the brand will make Android 15 stable. Then it was time for the other smartphone brands to adopt the latest major Android 15 software version to enhance the experience of their users.
Being a Galaxy enthusiast, here we are discussing the eligible device list for Android 15 and, somewhere, the One UI 7.0 version as well. Since Samsung usually introduces its latest UI version alongside or just after the latest Android version, So by this prospect, it is expected that the brand will deliver One UI 7.0 along with the Android 15 update.

However, the list mentioned above is not official, but we made it after collecting different prospects; for instance, the Galaxy smartphones, which have arrived with Android 13 out of the box, are eligible if the brand has allotted them at least two Android OS updates after that. But the band has a larger software policy, and it already offered four years of OS upgrades to mid-range phones, so the devices that have arrived on Android 11 or higher are all eligible for the Android 15 update.

Android 15 Introduces “Vibrate When Unlocked” for Notifications
Google’s next major iteration, Android 15, is actively in the developing stage and is expected to stop phones from vibrating while getting a lot of notifications.
Google has recently made Android 15 Beta 1.2 available to download, which has brought some crucial improvements. Now reports are revealing that Android 15 will bring new functionality to enhance the users’ experience, which will force the phone to stop vibrating while getting a lot of notifications.
Android 15’s notification cooldown reduces the volume of repeated notifications from the same application. However, at the moment, it doesn’t stop the phone from vibrating for each notification. However, we anticipate a future update to address this issue.
Speculation suggests that the reporter, while exploring the latest Android 15 Beta 1.2 update, successfully restored the notification cooldown settings page (Settings >> Notifications >> Notification cooldown), which Google had previously hidden from users in Android 15 Beta 1. According to the reports, a new toggle has been added that was previously unavailable: “vibrate when unlocked.” According to the description, this toggle makes it so the device will “only vibrate when [the] screen is unlocked.”
By authorizing this toggle, the phone will avoid vibrating while receiving a ton of successive notifications from the same application. Notification cooldown silences Android 15 repeated notifications from a similar application, but it is possible that it could still vibrate your phone for each one. Apart from this, there’s an option to disable vibration only when your phone is unlocked.
Users will get the power to enable “vibrate when unlocked” for peace and silence. They can disable both “vibrate when unlocked” and notification cooldown entirely to receive all notifications with vibration. Users can change the cooldown to apply only to conversations if they want silence for repetitive chats but notifications for other applications.r

Android 15 lets you Force Apps To Go Dark Which Doesn’t Even Support Dark Themes
Google is actively preparing for its upcoming version, as demonstrated by the availability of Android 15 Beta 1.2 for download just a few days after the release of Beta 1.1. We anticipate that the stable version of Android 15 will allow you to force apps to go dark, even if they don’t support the feature.
The metrics for 2022 suggest that 81.9% of readers use dark mode on their phones. Google offers support for a system-wide dark mode toggle in Android 14. Despite all of this, some of the applications still don’t have a dark theme, such as the ones from Fitbit or Amazon Shopping, but now the Android 15 update will overcome this lack and let you force these apps to go dark, even if they don’t have a built-in dark theme.
Back in January, Google hid a new’make all apps dark’ toggle under Settings >> Accessibility >> Color and Motion in the Android 14 QPR2 Beta 2. This toggle was not visible by default in Android 14 QPR2 Beta 2, and it was not even visible in Android 15 Beta 1.2.
According to reports, testing revealed that’make all apps dark’ outperforms ‘override force-dark’ in more applications, implying that the current developer opt-out is no longer functional and that the fundamental force-dark algorithm has changed. Android is introducing ‘make all apps dark’, a new accessibility setting that enhances the existing ‘override force-dark’ option and distinguishes itself from color inversion, which causes image distortion.
Currently, Android 15 Beta 1.2 lacks the’make all apps dark’ feature, but Google I/O 2024 next month could see the introduction of this feature in Android 15 Beta 2.
